Thanks, Roman... I strangely (?!?) feel me like a schoolboy at his first primary schoolday... virtually ALL my (limited) audio knowledge, vanished... and I'm dealing with brand-new problems, like a crossover with fixed slopes and cut-off frequencies ...

[quote user="Kerry Brown"]I don't understand when you say active crossovers don't attenuate. Mine does. Very well too, I can trim channels to match each other perfectly. And DEQX volume control is 'analog' = step ladder resistors. [/quote] I am not...

I am really not an expert in digital crossovers. I rented in past a few, inducing the Behringer DCX2496 that Thorsten mentioned. I less was concern at that time about the unit as prototyping crossover but rather was trying to learn if the digital cro...

My own experience suggests that it is possible to do speaker-level passive crossovers, but I must qualify that by saying that although I have put a lot into the crossovers themselves, and the wire,etc., etc., it has only been since I got the ML2...

[quote user="NBC"]Hi Romy,1) What dimensions for 1808 baffle would you suggest? The Golden rule is: 1.6 height, 1.0 width, 0.6 depth. 2) Is floor-firing vs. front-facing cone useful or preferred?I wouldn't use the 1808 or 8196 in ...

Have been playing with the Dannoy’s for four weeks now and they have significantly improved. Using my Trinnov pre-pro to see and adjust the parameters, i can answer Rom'y points.1. Frequency response: combined with a JL f113 subwoofer crossed over at...

A friend of mine showed this 5 way system at the annual enthusiasts event at Scalford Hall here in the UK.[IMG]http://i254.photobucket.com/albums/hh107/pure_sound/25917877386_6d44490768_o.jpg[/IMG]This comprises Lab Subs for LF, Some straight 80 Hz h...

[quote user="mats"]Good start Dan!The JBL phenolic 2" driver is 2482.I would lower the crossover point as far as you dare, 300Hz or so.Now the 2226 will do what they are pretty good at.Later you will likely want to filter the 2445 around 2k.A 600Hz h...

Well, Romy has often said it, digital can delay but not filter and analog can filter but not delay (in respect to sound quality). I most certainly agree.So the speaker is not time aligned and they try to clean up the mess digitally. Perhaps with a mo...

Fist off, hello to everyone. This is my first post here.I have a DJ/listening system in my basement. Mostly, self made. Some pictures:http://picasaweb.google.com/noviygera/BasementSystem#Just recently i installed new Funktion-One RES1.5HS horns. Pict...

Bruce told me last year that he started to manufacture 80Hz straight horns to replace his 80Hz. I was under impression that you refer to it.
Anyhow, if your midbass horn is fine then one of the most effective ways to get it even better is to reduce...

[quote user="noviygera"]I have been thinking about how nice it would be to have have a good sounding DSP for crossover and delay functionality. I know this subject was covered here before but what was talked about is this DSP is not that good, and th...

on 1) & 2); by "digital experiments" I meant "get a cheap digital crossover and try different slopes; on 3) & 4): Dave Slagle, Intact Audio, knows a LOT more about transformers than I do, and the nickle autoformers I got from him wo...

HiWell I am fairly new to active speakers. I've been in contact with Merlin and Guy in the UK about these type of speakers and their experiences. I'm just taking it all in and then going forward making a few mistakes and then learning about them!&nbs...
|
|
Ronnie,I do not know any. But the major question is why such a crossover is necessary. Obviously it requires 3 amplifiers and if so then the filters might be built in the amps. It one needs it for system prototyping purpose then if is fine but the de...

I think this is an interesting topic. I have made experiments (with a digital dsp processor) in my system and tried 4th order crossovers. I did not like the sound at all. Trying to explain this sound signature is tricky but here is my interpretation ...

[quote user="zanon"]Romy: I see. So you are thinking about adding more transducers at this point and not just increasing crude level through more Watts. When you said Milquiades SET was insufficient, I thought you meant just W as you can always build...

[quote user="rowuk"]The more "DSP
corrections" that we add, the worse things get. In addition, DSP time
alignment can only be useful for one seating position and distance from the speaker.[/quote]

The twins have a horrible night, probably the last stage of
teasing or perhaps we overplayed with them last night…. We took them from the cribs
to our bedroom and after an hour of fighting I left Amy with Abby and took Charlie/Kai

Ok, spent a half of the nigh to working with my IB problem
and discovered that everything that I do now is a complete mess.
First of all the crossover that I used is not what I though
it is.
I found my old there from which I learned...

And I wish I had looked more carefully before taking the cheap way out - which turns out to have become the more expensive way since I have no idea if anyone will buy a month old used battery.From the graphs the traditional lead acid batteries all pe...

Hi Romy
Yes, I think the toughts behind the Le Cléac'h flare is interesting.
I don't use them myself, however. And I don't use tractrix either.
But I do use a digital crossover.
cheers ;)

Romy, there are more ways to the top of the mountain...
And we already know that your way isn't my way...
You bring up many very valid points, but still I will continue to use my digital crossover as a very useful tool. But I am also experimentin...

one would take full advantage of what can be done in the digital domain so that the horn mouths could be arranged, not for time but to clean up their other interactions. This would be digital the entire way, solid state music files, digital amplifica...
